There were so many times that updating Win7 was a nightmare. I used to do plenty of fresh installs on various PCs and I would have to wait a day or sometimes more to get the OS up to date. I would have thought we moved past this by now.

Definitely not. Sometimes you even have to install additional bloatware like "HP support assistant" for example to complete the update process because the built-in update system is dysfunctional af.

Yup or Dell SupportAssist, or Lenovo System Update, etc
